Every week an artist whose single image was published by Der Greif is given a platform in which to blog about contemporary photography.

Impressions, Residues and In-between

Sep 24, 2014 - Matthew Rahner

I present you now with a selection of current work. I am thinking a lot about the landscapes at the edge of towns and cities. These places mix rural and urban, necessity collides with ingenuity, and nature recovers what it has lost. I find a similarity between this threshold, and that of photographs forgotten. News cycles as the world cycles. Photographs become dusty, as do buildings, as do memories. I seek to resurrect the landscape, and old pictures, and make them equal. This work is in progress. Check back soon. Thanks for looking. It's been a pleasure to share with everyone over the past week!
